Rezumat/Abstract. In the Moldova land, were made two lines of water adduction, having 6000 m length and 40 m slope, or 1/150 slope. The water supply component tubes were disposed under the plant: The tubes are made of glass – reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP). After about 180 days of operation, one of the lines showed severe deterioration of the quality pipe components.
This paper deals with some laboratory tests in order to detect the failure cases of the pipelines components.
